Ingredients
- 250 grams butter room temperature
- 150 grams caster sugar
- 350 grams plain flour
- 50 grams valentine sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 190 C/375 F/Gas Mark 5
- Put 250 grams butter, 150 grams caster sugar and 350 grams plain flour in a free standing mixer, mixing bowl or food processor and mix.
- Mix together until you get a shaggy dough thing going on.
- Add the valentine sprinkles. Mix together. If using a food processor then tip into a mixing bowl and mix together by hand
- Knead and squeeze it together with your hands either tipped out onto the work surface or in the bowl. Keep kneading until it becomes soft and sticks together completely.
- Tip out onto a lightly floured work surface and roll the smooth dough out to about 1 cm thick.
- Cut out your heart shapes. I get about 18 and bake in two batches but it will depend on your size of cutter.
- Transfer to your baking tray. I use a fish slice here.
- Bake for about 12 minutes or until slightly golden at the edges.
- Remove carefully after a few minutes out of the oven onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Apply To Valentine Face.
Notes
- If your mixture gets too soft chill it in the fridge for 30 minutes.
- Make your biscuits ahead and chill covered in the fridge until you want to bake them just add a few more minutes to the baking time.
- Only allow to colour a little when baking or they will be overbaked.
- Use a fish slice to carefully remove from your baking tray.
